IvEMORANDUM FOR: Chief, Support Branch

FRC-           : Chief, Cover Support Desk

SUBJECT        : COVER, NONOFFICIAL)- GENERAL
                  (Proposal for A&E Assessment of Potential
                    REDSKIN Agent .Candidates)
                 #90682


                 1.  Reference is made to my previous memoranda pertairing
            to the Subject as captioned above, ending with the Iemorandum
            for the Recc:rd dated 28 February 1961.

                 2.  As indicated in the referenced memoranda, COG has been
            experiencing difficulty in obtaining an appropriate.nonofficial)2Lq
            cover activity that can be used for t' e initial assessment .of
            REDS .  candidates.  The activity in ~ittsburg )is no longer
            under consideration for use in this connection. i,

                 3.  After appropriate coordination was effected among the
            Chief of Assessment and Evaluation Staff, the Deputy Chief of
            SR Division, Tom STRANGE of COG, and the writer, it was decided
            tat  due to the. time element it would not be possible to utilize
              nonofficiallover  unit for the initial assessment.  Since
            CO  has no suitable cover assets, they are requesting the
            SB/2 Desk, by separate memorandum, to make a survey to come up
            with several companies which can be utilized for this purpose
        -~  next year.

                 s.  As a result of CCG's inability to provide an appropriate
            cover, .the REDSKIN program, for this season, will proceed along
       ---  the lines that were utilized during the past years, i.e., after
            the candidates have been appropriately cleared, they will be
            contacted by a representative of SR/10 using alias Agency
            credentials.  The only change in the procedure will involve
--          the dual contact by a representative of SR/l0 and of the -
            Assessment and Evaluation Staff of OTR.  The latter, a psychologist,
            aill be documented with a CIA alias credential similar to
  -          a   carried b  the SR/10 representative; the psycholcgist will
             ake the initial assessment in the fmeld.
